I think this works:

Faelivrin > Orodreth > Galadriel > Aragorn > Gilraen > Ivorwen.

Elemmakil- Earendil- Aragorn- Boromir- Denethor, Steward of Gondor.

Is that too vague?

As I understand it, there has to have been direct interaction between the people named....I don't think Aragorn actually met Earendil. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

That's what I meant by vague. It was my first go on this game!

Elemmakil-Earendil-Elrond-Aragorn (as Thorongil)-Denethor

Take out Gandalf, and substitute Finduilas and Gwindor for Finrod, and it's right. I'll give it to you anyway though. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Hey Lord of Angmar! It's Manardiel's turn. You have to answer a question correctly before you can ask one. If you have any questions, just check the Quiz Room Rules. Have fun posting here!

Yes Sophia, that´ll work. Though my answer would have been Ted Sandyman-> Gaffer Gamgee ->Black rider ->Lord of the Nazgul> Eowyn

That works, but try not to use Gandalf.

Yes, those Elves who managed to survive the First Age do tend to come in handy in this game. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Oops, I had overlooked Frodo's little run-in with the Witch-King on Weathertop. I had Faramir and Eowyn instead. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Dang, Lind... you have me utterly stumped. I can only do it if I use Sauron, and technically I'm not supposed to use him either. But here is what I have:

Celegorm -> Orome -> Aule -> Sauron -> Ar-Pharazon -> Tar-Palantir
